My Minds Eye Challenge 32

Hi Scrappers,

It's that time again - where I trawl through my bottomless stash of MME stuff and realise that I have papers and embellishments from just about every collection but none of them seem to match! For the card challenge I've made a golden anniversary card for my Auntie and Uncle. Fifty years - can you imagine waking up to the same person for 50 years??!! I think it's an absolutely amazing achievement - I just wish I could celebrate with them, but since they are in the UK a card will have to do.

Here's this months sketch:

I've made a shaped card with a Martha Stewart punch - Beate Johns has done a great tutorial here which shows how to do this. The MME brads and the pin were silver but I've coloured them with a gold leafing pen. After numerous attempts I managed to tie a bow in the velvet ribbon - but not before the air turned blue!
